Black Kyanite
The Fan Blade of Alignment
Your attention is scattered into too many directions at once. Black kyanite fans into rough blades that look almost like a brush built for clearing a path. Center can return all at once or one stroke at a time.

Green Kyanite
The Heart's Alignment Blade
You need alignment that does not feel rigid. Green kyanite grows in long bladed crystals, directional without becoming severe. Straightness can still have a forest in it.

Orange Kyanite
The Warm Alignment
You need alignment with more heat in it. Orange kyanite takes the familiar blade of kyanite and stains it with manganese warmth. Discipline does not have to come cold.
